Farewell - Saor

My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here

My heart’s in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer

Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe

My heart’s in the Highlands, wherever I go

Farewell to the mountains, high-cover'd with snow

Farewell to the straths and green valleys below

Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods

Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods

Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North

The birth-place of valour, the country of worth

Wherever I wander, wherever I rove

The hills of the Highlands for ever I love
